Currently, I am serving as the Deputy Economic Development Representative for Colorado and Utah under the Department of Commerce - Economic Development Administration. My diverse international career path has built my expertise in economic development, business consulting, community engagement and strategic communications. My passion lies in enabling vulnerable populations to identify and solve their problems, on a small to large scale, while improving global quality of life and cross-cultural understanding. This aligns with my strong belief in the power of community collaboration to achieve sustainable results.

I thrive in building bridges across government agencies, businesses, start-ups, and non-profits translating global intel into local impact. Skilled in strategic resource and program management, community capacity building, change methodology, and partnership development with extensive international field experience throughout Latin America. I have strong communication and interpersonal skills with advanced proficiency in the Spanish language.

I would be thrilled to connect with others that are open to positive, constructive communication, connections and progress!
